You will work closely with embedded and machine learning engineers to define, develop, test and refine Vulcan’s ability to bring our customers value where it counts the most, in the field.

Proven success in overseeing all elements of the product development lifecycle
High effectiveness in managing cross-functional teams
Exceptional writing and editing skills, combined with strong presentation and public speaking skills

Objectives of this Role:

Own the end to end success of new features and functionality for the Vulcan robotic weeding implement. This includes the discovery, planning, testing, go to market and on-going support of these features.
Work closely with our partners and customers gathering feedback to establish a product roadmap that is aligned with FarmWise business goals.
Partner with Sales, Customer Support and Operations teams to deeply understand how customers are using the product to triage, root cause and drive resolution of any customer facing issues.
Distill input from various sources into a cohesive story that bridges the gap between our current reality and FarmWise’s future goals.

Responsibilities

Drive the execution of all processes in the product life cycle, including product and market research, competitor analysis, planning, positioning, requirements and roadmap development, and product launch
Translate product strategy into detailed requirements for prototyping and final development by engineering teams
Create product strategy documents that describe business cases, high-level use cases, technical requirements, revenue, and ROI
Collaborate closely with engineering, production, marketing, and sales teams in the development, QA, and release of products, and balance resources to ensure success for the entire organization
